Hi Raleigh,

From your home directory type:
rm -Rf .d-rats/

That should remove the hidden directory .d-rats/ . It's where all of the setup and configuration files are stored. It does not get removed when you uninstall or upgrade d-rats.

You can list hidden files and directories from the command line with:
ls  -a

Instead of deleting the entire directory you may be able to get away with just deleting the config file:
rm .d-rats/d-rats.config 

You shouldn't need to uninstall, just delete that file and/or directory and-rats will think its running for the first time.

Hope this helps,
Mike, N0SO
